With Jacqueline's mediation, the tense situation between the two sides reluctantly eased, and the battle did not break out.

Jacqueline proved that Donald really cooperated with the craftsmen. They also just arrived in Corta a few days ago and rescued the priest on the way, which helped Donald and several others to clear a lot of suspicion.

Of course, among them, Donald was worried about Julia's presence and worried about hurting her. There were also apostles of the craftsmanship and blacksmithing sect who knew they were invincible. They wanted to find an idea under the stairs. If they can live, who wants to die?

After all, Corta is not Demingham, and the temple of the craft and forging sect is not here. There is no dominance-level powerhouse guarding here. The three awakening levels are really going to make trouble. As for Corta's current situation, crafts and forging The sect is really unbearable.

"I just want to get my things back, the rest is easy to say, I can share with you the content detected by the inscriptions I left outside to ensure the safety of things with you... I will share with you. There is only one condition. I want to participate in your actions, and you also have to share information with me. Don't be in a hurry to refuse. The three of us are all awakening class. We just destroyed a blood clan castle near Beluye. You can To verify, our combat power can definitely help you do many things."

The fact that the battle didn't break out doesn't mean that Donald can cooperate with these big bosses and look directly at Jacqueline. Judging from her previous performance, she still has a certain right to speak here.

"Wait a minute, we need to discuss it."

Although Jacqueline wanted to agree, but this is Corta, and most of the information is also in the hands of the apostles who belong to the craft and blacksmithing sect, so it is difficult for her to speak directly.

Several people gathered in the utility room on the first floor of the workshop to discuss.

"I object, I can't believe these heretics, Knight Commander Jacqueline, you should also understand how serious the current situation is, our sect's reputation in Corta depends on the truth of this matter, drawn on this drawing The content is obviously the batch of firearms we have been tracking down recently, as well as these books... Someone mentioned to me before that there are people who have turned away from the faith in the sect, I still have some doubts, it seems that now Indeed it is!"

Holding the blueprint in his hand, he knew that he was a bit sensitive recently, and his reaction to any external emergencies was even extreme, but this was largely because he was under too much pressure.

"According to them, they had cleared the vampire castle in the mountains near Beluye a few weeks ago, and if this is true, then it is impossible for them to commit crimes in Corta after a few days' journey, captain. , I apply now to go back and check the actions of those people just now."

Just when Jacqueline wanted to speak, an apostle next to him said directly that his opinion was actually contrary to her own captain.

"Francis, you..."

The captain looked at the young man he called Francis, with a strange expression on his face. The act of refuting an opinion was fine in itself, but this man, if he remembered correctly, used to have a stricter attitude towards strangers than himself, but now he actually took the initiative. Bring it up to consider involving them in the action.

"I think it's feasible, just as the gentleman said just now, if these three people can become our helpers, their combat power will undoubtedly provide us with a lot of assistance. Captain Luther, you were not talking about the current situation just now. Serious, do you just want to watch Corta's problem continue to spread? I can be responsible for communicating with these people... In fact, what they handed to the craftsman uncle is an unfinished space ring , I saw it with my own eyes, that's why they are so nervous and irritable, can you understand?"

Jacqueline finally chose to speak out about the space ring, which will undoubtedly increase the credibility of Donald and others. If they have bad intentions, there is no need to use the space ring as bait, right?

"Well... well, I agree to cooperate for the time being, Francis, you go back to verify what they said, and use the communication circle within the sect to be faster."

The space ring still has enough weight, Captain Luther said after a brief thought,

"If they do any abnormal behavior, I will immediately suspend the operation. Although we need to use extraordinary methods in extraordinary times, it does not mean that we have to abandon our principles and make compromises."

"Then I'll go first."

Francis left the utility room directly after receiving permission. After going out, he glanced at Donald and the others who were gathered next to him, and his pace continued to accelerate.

When he arrived at the door, he found that a girl with a long sword was already waiting for him outside.

"Where do you want to go in such a hurry?"

Donald's voice sounded from behind, and Anthony, who was beside him, looked up and down the man, and told Donald the result with his eyes.

"I want the Muslim sect to verify what you just said. This is to confirm your identities. What do you mean by that?"

Looking at the girl in front of him exuding an aura of awakening, Francis dodged his eyes, gritted his teeth secretly and continued.

"Verifying our identities...a good excuse to leave, but before that, I have a question for you, where did you go in the early hours of yesterday?"

Donald narrowed his eyes and moved closer to him.

"What are you heretics trying to do? This is Corta, not the extrajudicial place you once lived in!"

Deliberately amplifying the voice, as expected, the few people who were still discussing in the utility room immediately pushed the door and walked out, looking at them suspiciously.

"Captain Luther, I wanted to verify their identities, but they stopped me. What these people just said about destroying the vampire castle, I suspect that they fabricated it to deceive our trust!"

As soon as Francis said these words, Luther, who was already hostile to Donald and his party, immediately frowned. Compared with these outsiders, he naturally trusted his team more.

"You are very good at taking a bite, but can you answer my previous question first, where were you early this morning? Why did I put the second-level inscription at the back door of the workshop - the image recorded by the reconnaissance eye. Will you appear among those who sneak into the workshop?"

That's right, when Anthony was checking the reconnaissance eye just now, he clearly saw that a team sneaked in from the back door of the workshop late last night or early this morning. like.

If Anthony was a little uncertain before, and now seeing that this person is actually going to leave early, it can be said to be 90% sure.

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

At this time, of course, it cannot be admitted.

"Okay, you don't understand, then I'll explain it to you. I came three days ago to find craftsmen to build things, because it's very important to me, so before I left, I arranged all four directions around the house. A second-level inscription that can record images of everything that happens around you within a certain period of time - Scouting Eye, are you annoyed and regret that you didn't think to check the situation around the workshop at that time?"

Donald spoke slowly, not so much to explain to Francis, but to let the people next to him understand.

So all eyes turned to Francis.

"I slept at home yesterday morning. What you said recorded by the reconnaissance eye... Just relying on one mouth, isn't it what you want to say?"

He can only hope that their inscriptions are one-time use and cannot be re-watched after reading them.

"Yes, Your Excellency, since you said you have recorded the video, can you take it out directly?"

"Of course there is no problem. The reconnaissance eye is at the back door of the workshop, and you can call up the contents at any time. This gentleman, take a look with us. If you really make a mistake, I will not only apologize to you, but also give it to you. 100 pounds of compensation!"

Donald glanced at Anthony and nodded with an imperceptible range. Anthony immediately took back the steps he was about to take, and turned his body to the position of Francis.

"Captain Luther, are you just looking at these foreign heretics and slandering me?"

Francis set his eyes on Luther, but the latter avoided his eyes. Luther did not think that Donald and the others would make up meaningless lies to deceive him at such a time. His character was indeed a bit aggressive. But that doesn't mean he's an idiot.

"Francis, it's just a confrontation, as long as you prove your innocence, we'll let that gentleman fulfill his promise... What are you worried about?"

Captain Luther was inconvenient to question his teammates, but Jacqueline did not have so many restrictions and asked directly.

"This is unreasonable, I Francis can swear to the king of blacksmiths, I have absolutely no... soil waves!"

Raising his hand seems to be declaring his loyalty to his faith, but the next second, his palm suddenly hits the ground, and the ground around him suddenly rises, like a wave suddenly pushing towards the surroundings.

If you don't go now, when will you wait?

However, Francis underestimated Donald, who had been prepared for a long time. Lilo didn't care about these soil waves at all. She didn't even pull out her long sword.

Bigby Strikes the Palm!

Donald didn't even give him any chance. The Bigby Strike Palm, which was used with energy-shaping talent, was no longer just a simple push forward, but rushed directly into the earth and waves, and seized the opportunity to take advantage of it. Francis running away.

Anthony, who had run halfway, stopped at the same time.

"Why, in front of so many people, you still want to run?"

Throwing the person directly on the ground in the center of the workshop, the crowd immediately surrounded them.

"Francis, why are you doing this?"

Luther looked at his team members in disbelief. Francis' escape just now was enough to prove that what Donald said before was true. He was involved in this murder!

There was no response. Francis, who knew he could not escape, just sat on the ground without looking at the people around him.

"Heh, looks like a tough guy, a few, it's about my treasure... Would you mind if I interrogate him?"

Donald swept around the few people in front of him, and had no objection. From the moment Francis betrayed, there was no longer any of his companions here. He nodded in satisfaction and turned to look at Lilo.

An undead death energy can soften all the hard bones. Obviously, Francis is not a person who regards death as his own.

"Those robbers told me to do this, they said that if I brought them here, they would pay me a handsome sum..."

"Lie! He didn't tell the truth!"

Stephanie directly interrupted Francis' speech, and Francis' current state could not resist her talent exploration.

"It seems that the lessons are not enough..."

Donald no longer kept his hands, and his mental power controlled Francis's hands, floating in front of him, and then said,

"I'll give you 10 seconds to answer my question."

"1!"

The nail of the right thumb was forcibly pulled out of the flesh at the tip of the finger by mental force.

Donald has never liked this kind of torture, but today he really doesn't have the patience to reason with this Mr. Francis.

"Ah~ I really don't know, I..."

"2!"

This time it's the index finger of the right hand.

"Wait, wait a while, I'll..."

"3!"

Middle finger of right hand.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, this is only the third nail, Francis is already curled up in a ball on the ground in pain, but his hands are still raised in the air.

Donald stood in front of him, just lowered his eyes, the coldness in his eyes clearly visible.

"4!"

Right ring finger.

"I said...I said!"

"5...When do you finish speaking, when do I stop."

At this point, the tip of the right finger was bloody, and the people next to him heard Francis's wailing, only Julia turned around under the care of Stephanie.

"Francis, those who betray their beliefs, should be punished by the most severe punishment in the world. You should know this very clearly in the doctrine."

There is no doubt that the major denominations hate those who have turned away from their beliefs. The stronger the faith, the more they hate this type of people.

"I didn't betray my faith, they told me that as long as I help them find this, they will help me move up the sect, and then I can better serve the king of blacksmiths...I I didn't expect them to kill people, and I was also coerced!"

Francis is still trying to defend himself.

"Where's that ring!"

Donald doesn't care about these things, he just wants to know where the space ring is.

"It was taken by the robbers. After they killed people, they looted the workshop for a while."

"Where is the robber!"

"It's hiding in the sewers in the city, but I don't know the exact location."

Answering Donald's question tremblingly, Stephanie didn't give a reminder this time, and Francis was telling the truth.

"The gang of robbers who have been operating between the cities of Corta and Del Chimo recently, creating panic and killing, right?"

Jacqueline clenched her fists. The target she appeared here was them. The Church of Morning Light received information that the group of robbers had recently hidden in Corta. She searched for so many days and couldn't find a trace of them. It turned out that they were all hiding. underground!

"No, those robbers told you that they could take you to the next level in the sect, and you actually believed it? Don't you know that you need to get approval from the church to improve your position in the sect, you... ..."

Halfway through the words, Luther's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and the rest of the words choked in his throat.

He saw Francis' eyes, and suddenly an uncontrollable thought appeared in his mind that sent a chill down his spine.

If those robbers didn't lie to Francis.

Does that mean that the Cult of Craft and Blacksmithing has supporters of the robbers in the branch of Corta?
